Mary Ward Week


23rd January - 30th January


Picture of Mary Ward Mary Ward - foundress of the Institute of the Blessed Virgin Mary was born 23rd Jan 1585 and died 30th Jan 1645.

She is recognised as one of the most original and interesting women of the seventeenth century.

She struggled, in spite of fierce opposition, to further the position of women in society through education mainly.

She founded, again in spite of fierce opposition, a new sort of international religious community. This week a number of Mary Ward quotes are displayed around the school and students are invited to write a poem or essay on their favourite quote. There is a prize for the best effort submitted by mid February.
